This will give you some idea of states that ban smoking in restaurants, its not an exact science.
Dining: These states ban smoking in restaurants and bars: California, Delaware, New York, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey (casinos exempted), Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington. Montana banned smoking in restaurants - bars exempt till 2009. South Dakota had a ban - status unsure. In November 2006, Ohio and Nevada banned smoking in most public places; Arizona passed a similar ban, which takes effect May 2007. In January 2006 the Territory of Puerto Rico banned smoking in the workplace, including bars and casinos. Smoking in restaurants is banned in a number of cities and counties in other states, but is still common. http://www.smokefreeworld.com/usa.shtml

Its more of a city ordinance thing in my experience. Various cities have ordinances against it. Not states in particular.

I think it is more city ordinance that a state thing. Nebraska has some cities that do that..
